    Politics will exist anyway
    Interesting that Jon Newton is quoted, as he\\\’s also a defendant in these cases

    Then again the whole Internet is.

    Hard to imagine how any fixed code of conduct could prevent political disputes and so on. Everything is subject to interpretation. Find a way to quickly track actual death threats and other criminal acts, and require mandatory arbitration for civil liability with some intelligent mediators like for instance actual retired editors.

    That\\\’s about all you can do. No code of conduct can cover what really matters, including choice of images, metaphors, rhetorics.
